<div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr">It sounds like those patrons who are not using the quiet study rooms as intended need access to a space more suited to their activities. My library is across the street from a secondary complex and we have struggled with similar issues at times. After school, kids need to be able to blow off steam, be a little messy, and be a little loud. If your teen space won't accommodate that, maybe there is a meeting room they can use after school until the room rentals start up (usually evening?) I think it's fine to ask noisy patrons to vacate the quiet study areas if there is another place they can go. Ultimately, we want those kids in the library and it is up to us to find a way to provide what they need. </div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><img src="https://docs.google.com/uc?export=download&id=11xNI6hegWeXuoW5GiYfRWtze_RtdtctF&revid=0B2D5gwL_-Zo5SHN3NEg3ZGE5TG5penhqYTdyenZ1MjRFTDRVPQ"><br></div></div></div><br></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Tue, Apr 5, 2022 at 12:01 PM <<a href="mailto:michlib-l-request@mcls.org">michlib-l-request@mcls.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">Send Michlib-l mailing list submissions to<br>

economic journalist, Jeff Madrick will examine issues of childhood poverty
including its conditions, causes and costs.<span>
</span>He’ll discuss how he thinks the nation can eradicate it and why it
should.<span> </span>According to Columbia
University’s Center on Poverty and Social Policy, the monthly child poverty
rate increased from 12.1% in December 2021 to 17% in January 2022, the highest
rate since the end of 2020.<span> </span>The 41%
increase means 3.7 million <b>more</b>
children are living in poverty. The recent increase is due to the expiration of
the monthly Child Tax Credit payments. And 11.8% of households with children
did not get enough to eat in October 2021, according to the Center on Budget
and Policy Priorities.<span></span></span></p>

Your Own Cardboard Carnival</a>: It started as part of a Saturday program with underrepresented students in STEM, paired with mentors from Northwestern University to work on monthly engineering design projects. After several years of one-off projects, the Evanston
(IL) Public Library teen services staff and their partners asked, "How can we get students to pursue a long-term project to build and strengthen STEM skills and bring the community together to celebrate their work?” From this, the concept of Evanston’s Cardboard
Carnival was born. <u></u><u></u></span></li><li class="gmail-m_3795411832067678192MsoPlainText"><span class="gmail-m_3795411832067678192MsoHyperlink"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;color:windowtext;text-decoration:none"><a href="https://gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.webjunction.org%2Fnews%2Fwebjunction%2Flibraries-learn-from-eviction-focus.html&data=04%7C01%7Cwhites29%40michigan.gov%7Cb7f4f62b6a1d4d3bb19f08da127fb2f1%7Cd5fb7087377742ad966a892ef47225d1%7C0%7C0%7C637842636917385720%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=w8A%2BkcHgS4GFEkT7%2F77xnE5reKtTQtGeZ0ZZoyBLckU%3D&reserved=0" target="_blank">Libraries

But libraries with limited support for information technology (IT) may be challenged with how to assess broadband and related technologies to keep these services up to date. Join this session to learn how to use the Toward Gigbagit Libraries toolkit―a free,
self-service guide created to help libraries understand and improve their IT capacities and broadband resources. The toolkit can help staff better articulate the library’s needs to leadership, policy makers, and broadband service providers, in order to improve
on digitally serving the community and planning for the future.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial,sans-serif">Digital collections at your library can preserve local histories and artifacts at risk of being lost. They offer an opportunity to represent the diversity
of stories and voices in your community likely missing from your physical collection. But they are resource-intensive, requiring new skills, technology, and an ongoing commitment to maintain them. Understanding the full lifecycle of digital stewardship is
critical to successfully providing digital collections. In this webinar, practitioners will share how their digital collections have enabled their community members to connect with unique histories and cultures, increase appreciation of local history, and
foster connections across generations. You’ll also learn about a new series of free courses developed for small public libraries and tribal archives, libraries, museums.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

<div>Hello All,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Our library is planning to purchase a new Reference desk, so I'm looking for suggestions. I'm looking for something that is well made, sturdy and comfortable. Our current Reference desk isn't huge and has an L format. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Has anyone purchased a Reference desk recently that they would recommend? </div>
